Hi ppl.
I recently bought a HP Ipaq hw6915, and Im not so overwhelmed with the speed ..I tried other PDA and they were quite faster than 6915 (WM5)..
Can anyone tell me some "Tips `n Tricks" to make it faster..?
btw. what programs do you suggest for it (square screen)..
Thnx, and greetings from a newbie..
22 views..no answers..c˛mon..what software do you use on your 69xx PDA-s?
Tweaks? ..something?
i think its a case of welcome to the world of wm5 :S
Ive heard of people having issues with performance who are using 4gb mini sd cards however, is this the case with you?
No, I got a 1Gb card..Its not the problem with the card but the PDA..my girlfrend has one 6915 too..same problems.
hmmm,
to be honest, ive never really been all that pleased with wm5's performance... Theres a list of tweaks in the wiki
http://wiki.xda-developers.com/index.php?pagename=WM5_Tweaks_Performance
you might give them a try, youll need a suitable registry editor for your ppc.

Thnx! Ill try that..
Hi. New here so please be patient...just upgraded to WM6 and now phone is sluggish and keyboard occasionally locks on numbers and symbols...any suggestions for tweaking it?
Would be helpful to know what device you have and what version of WM 6 you just upgraded to....
The WIKI is always a good place to start, look at "Hack and Tweaks" That same page has loads of helpful info.
Hope that helps,
A lot of Hermes users who upgraded to wm6 sometimes get an unresponsive keyboard at times and sluggish application loading.
Also, does your keyboard lock on numbers while on a call? If so, that is a WM6 bug that Microsoft and/or HTC need to fix.
I'm sorry...newbie here. ...my phone is a cingular 8525...it now is working fine so i guess it just needed a minute to catch up the WM6 ...i will look at the wiki thingy and check out what you suggested Eric...thank you all for being kind to a noob...
sorry, Eric didn't suggest that Steven did...thank you Steven..

There is no BEST one. They are different and are created for different reasons. One might be great for ultra storage (like mine) and the other might be feature full for multimedia, etc. Try them all out, but more importantly read.
Hi all,
have anyone already tried to put one of these ROMs on a VoiceMessenger?
Thanks for support,
joseffe
So nice, you had to post it twice?
Not really, but my browser crashed ;o)
I am looking for WM6.1 Prof or WM6.5 for my device as it is "only" WM6.1 Std. installed and some software will not work with this edition. Any ideas?
Cheers,
joseffe
Well, the major problem I see with this is that your device has no touch screen. No touch screen, no Windows Mobile Professional.
You're wrong Windows Mobile Professional run on SPV C600 and this phone don't have touch screen but users must use fake pointer.
Regreds.
P.S. Sorry for my english.
yeah, i kinda like to know if it's possible to put newer OS, even if it's 6.1 standard
Hi can anyone please tell me how to upgrade my ba to wm 6.5 from wm 6? , i used the wizard to upgrade from wm2003 to wm6 about 2 yrs ago, any help much appreciated, love this pda and i love using it as a phone too
basicly, when your device is already upgraded, there is not much to do.
you probably don't have to worry about sim lock and radio roms and storage sizes anymore, since apparently, it all worked fine so far.
so all you need to do is download any wm6.5 rom, unpack it, and make a RUU folder, containing the rom itself (nk.nbf) and a few other files named for example maupgradeut_noid.exe and getdevicedata and so on.
then you hard reset your device by pressing camera+record+power+reset and set the menu options clear registry hive and format storage to "YES" and enable kitl to "NO" using the camera and record buttons to flip and switch, confirm that with the mail button.
then you put your device into bootloader mode by pressing reset+record+power, kill active sync, connect the device to the pc and start maupgradeut_noid. if the 2nd screen shows you at least the version of the rom you go to, you are fine and can start the upgrade.
as soon as it is finished, use the hard reset method described above to prepare the device for the first start and then you might want to use "getting started" on the device to set it up and set up sync to get your pim data back. i shortened this description as you might remember a lot of stuff, or so i hope. most of what i wrote should ring a bell, if not, please feel free to have a look in the wizard for upgrades from wm5 to wm6 -=here=- or simply ask again, what troubles you.
with best regards

hi Tony thanks 4 ure help, when u say any rom is that only those specific for ba or are they all universal? i downloaded WM65-23052 & EnergyROM_RAPHAEL_20090811_Titanium or should i stick to the ones on the ba wizard page eg r6? i guess its the latter
of course you can only use blueangel roms found in the ba wm6 section, i mean, if you have a dvd writer that can read any disk, you wouldn't shove a slice of salami in there, would you?
the roms are so far interchangable as being WWE and work with every BA worldwide, but you need a blueangel rom, because of the rom's structure, memory consumption, drivers and so on, and after all, the buttons and the display resolution.
i once had a case, where someone tried to flash a charmer rom to a ba, that rom was way too big, and also the files were completely different, so he couldn't get through with it on his own and asked, because he would have messed up his ba with that pretty bad.
so, conclusively, 23052 builds are nice, but wait, till it's coming for the BA. i think d-two is working on it, maybe you want to have a look at the 23004 german rom thread, i asked him and he is gonna make an english version too, but until then you might want to catch status updates there.
Tony thanks it worked awsome phone, i used xplodes english rom, is there much difference between that & the german one? who needs an iphone eh again many thanks will lookout for d2s new ba release cheers
with the current releases there are no major differences between d-two's and xplode's build (except for the language) but what i wrote was about the next builds, they're both working on 23047 or 23052 builds, but d-two has the advantage that he has overcome the know sync and sms bugs, so his build will probably be the first of those two to come out. although he is rather new to this forum and so far he only supported his own wm6.5 build 23004 german, that is a guy you better keep an eye on. he is making fast progress and maybe will become one of the major chefs soon.
hi again please can you tell me how to do a wm6.5 hard reset & also how to get into into bootloader mode as to reload a new rom eg d2's, also i did notice there were 2 excel icons in msoffice maybe a bug many thanks
actually i solved it myself, just gotta be quicker with the camera & record buttons cheers
Hi Tony everything on explodes exroms installed ok except jbed, is that java? Also i looked at xplodes manila thats really nice, i guess thats on the latest phones , its like a mini o/s, so u would just install that after u install a 6.5 rom?
yes, jbed is the java applet manager.
for manila, i wouldn't say it is a mini os, it is more of an alternative gui, it replaces the titanium today screen with a touchflo one, but it also just features basic functions, photo viewing, music playing and does not alter the start menu or any add-on apps, most of the functions are also available in titanium or for titanium as an add-in, let's say facebook or stuff like that.
the time to install doesn't really matter, you can also install other apps first, whatever, you only need to know that after you install it, you have to deactivate "default" in today plug-ins and also all the others, because you can have only manila as your today plugin then and then you should find a "touch to start touchflo" button on your today screen and then you'll see, whether it works or not. that really depends from user to user, and between the different devices, roms, countries and manila versions, maybe you have to try several versions before you actually find one that runs in an acceptable speed, because that seems to be the general issue when it comes to porting manila.
thanks i may just stick 2 what i have, d2,s new 6.5.1 rom is beta so would that except xplodes extrom 23004 cabs? or is it best to wait for him to put his own one out?
thanks i may just stick with what i have, D2's new rom 6.5.1 is that compatible with xplodes 23004 extrom or is it best to wait for d2 to bring his own one out?
d-two said he wanted to release one, maybe till the weekend he's done putting it together.
